    I don't recall if everyone's seen this yet, but it's not in the wiki yet I think so like :D
    It was added recently ish, but I haven't actually seen anyone using it! D: And it makes pipes so much less laggy!


    *edit
    https://powdertoy.co.uk/Wiki/W/Using_automatic_PIPE_tracks.html

    Finally on Wiki! :D

    Unfortunately I don't get it, normal design is faster here...

    Left: your design, no pipe in the corner, wider entrances and exits
    Mid: auto generated pipe
    Right: optimized the corner a little manually

    BTW how to let the figure resize automatically? It's to wide to show itself entirely

    There is a way to make it actually a bit faster, but I don't think Catelite has shown it even though she has made it that way.

    I See what she did... ha, 
    Tesselated pipe. Unique, but works to the advantage of how pipe conducts materials through itself.

    You make this manually?
    I don't know why but this design is twice efficient, @cracker64 should make it embedded

    @baizuo (View Post) Wow i didn't see that. It maybe cuz @Catelite used that for making funnels in it to gain speed . The end is just for show. Or maybe it has do something too? I just know that these 4 pixels has to do something with that.

    EDIT: I know, look at the next gif that catelite posted. It's wider and Bizzare goes in stair way so it's faster. Like gaps. So now we know that THERE is acutally a way to do it. Just it's hard to get it.

    I will make an animation showing how I did it. XD It has nothing to do with pipe colors.
